Still bitter about RPO being a hit? 

 

TBH Deadpool 2 probably would have impacted anyway because there's still more competition. Maybe not something like Avengers but competition nonetheless.

 

If it wasn't for Poppins, Solo would have got December but Memorial Day hasn't worked for Disney for a while so maybe late summer would have better but for some reason, they think Star Wars and Memorial Day is a winning formula which may not be the case this time next week.

 

I used to feel like a move to August or December was inevitable as well, but I think now the decision to stay put in May -- in addition to the early summer family business -- is also about Disney realizing they need some kind of break between Solo and Episode 9 to let enthusiasm marinate again.
